Overview
A counter channel shows a live server statistic in its name, such as "Members: 12,480", and greed keeps the number up to date as people join, leave or boost.
Looking for the game where members count up together? That is Counting.
Getting Started
Create a counter channel with the statistic you want to show.
,counter add (metric) [kind],counter add members voice(metric): the statistic to show, such asmembers,botsorboosts.[kind]: the type of channel to create:voice,text,category,announceorstage. Defaults tovoice.announceandstageneed Community to be enabled in your server.
This creates a voice channel that shows your server's member count and updates automatically.
Use ,counter options to see every metric and channel type your server
supports.
Management
,counter: show how to use counters.,counter list: list every counter channel in your server.
,counter remove (channel): stop updating a counter channel. The channel itself is not deleted.
Members, humans, bots, pending members, channels, text channels, voice channels, categories, announcement channels, stage channels, boosts, boosters and a timestamp. Use ,counter options to see the exact names.
You can rename a counter channel however you like. greed only replaces the last number in the name, or adds : number to the end if there is none. Discord limits how often a bot can rename a channel, so a counter updates at most about every 10 minutes.
You can also ask the assistant in the dashboard to add, remove or list counter channels, for example "add a members counter". It shows you the plan to approve first. Removing a counter keeps the channel.
Counters are also in /configure → Utility → Counter channels.
